Biology

Prof. Bob Antibus and his ecology class go on a hiking trip to prepare to go into
a bog in Michigan.

As a biology major, you will receive a broad education consisting of courses that
focus on cells, invertebrates, plants, animals and humans. Ecology and environmental
biology are stressed. Independent study opportunities exist at the Bluffton University Nature Preserve,
greenhouse or in the Riley and Little Riley Creeks which flow through Bluffton.

This preparation will serve as a basis for entering fields such as teaching, biological
research, medical professions, agriculture and naturalist fields.

Dean applied for the internship on a whim after Dr. Daniel Berger, professor of chemistry,
sent an email. It’s a decision he doesn’t regret. He earned two semesters worth of
Spanish credit and fulfilled his cross-cultural requirement. >>>Dean's story
